For What It's Worth

The Staple Singers

Something happen in here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I got to beware It's time to stop, children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down Battle lines being drawn Nobody's right if everybody's wrong Young people speaking their minds Getting so much resistance from behind It's time to stop, children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down What a field day for the heat A thousand people in the street Singing songs and carrying signs Mostly say, hooray, for our side It's time to stop, children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It hurts when you're always afraid Step out of line, the man comes and takes you away It's time to stop, children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down Stop, children, what's that sound? Everybody look what's going down
